CHILDREN
Rollicking laughter pervades
demanding
I heed the call
focused
entirely in their noisy direction.
Their giggles trickle a path direct to my heart
in symphony
with happier times remembered deep inside
my weary throbbing soul spaceCHILDREN
relinquishing my adulthood
for a refreshing youthful sip
sliding down my throat in unstoppable wild giggles
from clear glistening waters dripping in sun-drenched smiles
like trickling songs cleansing my jaded soul
long weighed down by lofty schemes disguised as dreams,
not worth remembering.

We have to sacrifice a lot to raise children, but they
are worth it.
